Thermal equilibrium of an ideal gas in a free-floating box
Scott Tremaine, Bence Kocsis, Abraham Loeb
The equilibrium and fluctuations of an ideal gas in a rigid container are studied by every student of statistical mechanics. Here we study the less well-known case when the box is…
Recent Star-formation in a Massive Slowly-Quenched Lensed Quiescent Galaxy at z=1.88
Mohammad Akhshik, Katherine E. Whitaker, Joel Leja +10
In this letter, we reconstruct the formation pathway of MRG-S0851, a massive, , strongly lensed, red, galaxy at . While the global p…
The survival of globular clusters in a cuspy Fornax
Shi Shao, Marius Cautun, Carlos S. Frenk +5
It has long been argued that the radial distribution of globular clusters (GCs) in the Fornax dwarf galaxy requires its dark matter halo to have a core of size kpc. We rev…
Prospects for Galactic and stellar astrophysics with asteroseismology of giant stars in the Continuous Viewing Zones and beyond
J. Ted Mackereth, Andrea Miglio, Yvonne Elsworth +30
The NASA- mission presents a treasure trove for understanding the stars it observes and the Milky Way, in which they reside. We present a first look at the prospects for…
Thermal and turbulent properties of the Warm Neutral Medium in the solar neighborhood
Antoine Marchal, Marc-Antoine Miville-Deschênes
The transition from the diffuse warm neutral medium (WNM) to the dense cold neutral medium (CNM) is what set the initial conditions to the formation of molecular clouds. The proper…
Optimal CMB Lensing Reconstruction and Parameter Estimation with SPTpol Data
M. Millea, C. M. Daley, T-L. Chou +66
We perform the first simultaneous Bayesian parameter inference and optimal reconstruction of the gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), using 100 deg o…
